    Outside patio area, who doesn't love a mermaid?
    sophia l.

    Guess I haven't been to a Starbucks in the last 120 days, my phone offloaded the app. So I downloaded it and let a couple people go before me. I usually get the mango dragon fruit refresher drink with light ice, vanilla latte or a chai tea latte But today I decided to try something else. I tried a green tea latte and substituted the milk for almond milk. I got honey as a sweetener. I asked if they can put no ice in it, and they said that they can mix it with no ice so that worked well for me! I should've asked for a little more honey cause I can hardly taste it, and I don't eat or drink many sugary things in general, and I could barely taste it. All good next time I know just to ask for a pinch more. The girl was really patient when I was asking questions or trying to figure out what I wanted to try, and my substitutions. She didn't rush me, and I pulled up the app and had signed in before I made the order, but didn't realize I didn't have any funds left over, so she helped me scan to pay and load me up! The customers are probably pretty chill at this location because nobody complained about how long it took. I use the restroom at this location and there wasn't a lock on it so I didn't have to go back and ask for some pin number which was nice! I stepped outside and got some sunshine Also while waiting. They have a nice patio area with little tables and chairs. If you had a larger party, I'm sure you could put the tables and chairs together yourself. The whole area is pretty cute actually! Lots of little shops and restaurants within walking distance from this location. Parking was pretty easy, there's a parking lot in the back that I easily found a spot in. This place was right off the highway and I might come back a different time on my way home from San Diego and explore the area more!

    The benefit to this location is how BIG it is inside. I like the attention to detail and all the artwork. The inside is spacious and there's some seating outside too. The parking can be a bit cramped, but it's a great location. Also, it's always very clean inside with a lot of seating. My only recommendation is turning down the music a bit. This is one of the louder locations.

    Charming coffee shop with Spanish decor, lively music and a chill atmosphere. Great for people watching. Glad we came over here.

    Oh our way up to attend an event and we dropped by to get some beverages and snacks. Tried the chicken sandwich for the first time. Compared to their breakfast sandwiches, sorry I didn't think it was that great. The ham sandwich was a much better but I still prefer the breakfast items.

    How is it possible that I ask for light ice and get a whole cup full of it and be told that she already gave me a light scoop. I practically drank about a shot of pink drink. I was offered more but honestly do it right first. My friend got normal ice and had so much less than mine. Just admit your mistakes and don't lie. Don't let the blonde do your order.

    First time at this location because there was a drive thru here. I'm super disappointed when I opened my cup and realized that it's not even full. I'm not sure if it's a specific employee that is doing this, but they definitely need to know that it's not right if we're paying an arm and a leg for this.

    Update...I think management and the powers that be heard enough people complain because I have been to this Starbi's a couple of times and have not experienced anything like before. Yes the lines is always long, but it is expected since this is the only drive through in SC. The staff is very friendly and will go above and beyond when you order drinks that are not the normal drinks. Yes, I am that person because I order keto drinks and it requires more ingredients . Regardless of what I order they always make exactly what I want. Thank you!!!' I am super happy that this store is back to normal

    Only open until 3pm and only in the drive through. Sucks if you don't have a car and are traveling. Order ahead is not available either.

The night before my dissertation defense, I ordered a 96 oz coffee (joe-to-go) to go with a note saying I was defending my PhD (preemptively apologizing if I looked like a frazzled raccoon and worried anyone on accident while picking up). When I walked in at 7:45 AM (15 min earlier than my pick up time, bc anxiety), the staff immediately complimented my defense outfit -- instant confidence boost -- and when I said I was the person picking up "lots of coffee," they led me to the coffee, already packed and ready :') They all wished me good luck with the warmest, most dazzling smiles. They even included a note that said, "You got this~!" which I kept in front of me during my defense. (see photo) And I passed!!! Also, they gave me half-and-half and oat milk?? In this economy?? Oat milk is basically liquid gold. I felt so loved. So caffeinated. So non-dairy option supported. Usually after defenses, there is leftover coffee that people are trying to give away. But me and High Tide Coffee? No sir. No leftovers. One of my committee members had about 4-5 cups, and I am not exaggerating., (Even in a field that basically runs on coffee, academics are running on caffeine.... and wine, so a room of 12 people, not all drinking coffee, and still finishing 96 oz of coffee is a record.) Thank you, High Tide, for the excellent coffee, the kindness, the emotional support, and the very necessary academic bean juice. I am officially glad I chose you to help caffeinate the most important morning of my PhD. and thank you again for supporting me emotionally and caffeine-induced confidence :)

What I ordered: -Lavender Honey Matcha: I got this with oat milk and it tasted like water with sweet lavender flavoring, couldn't really taste the matcha. 2/5 My cousins and I weren't very impressed by the drinks here. We all got matcha so I'm thinking maybe their coffee is better because the place was busy. I probs wouldn't come back, and if I did I'd give the coffee a chance.
